3+4核单元采取重要步骤运维
GeorgiaPower宣布为GaWaynesboro附近的Vogtle 3和4核扩充项目新建核单元实现另一个重要里程碑3号Vogtle生成器首次发电,并成功同步连接电网上月开始热功能测试这两项成绩都表示向运维的重大步骤
肯格林说, 佐治亚电厂董事长、总裁兼CEO金格林表示 : “ 加入佐治亚电厂真是令人难以置信的启发性时间, 标志新核装置生成清洁可靠电量的第一天, 未来60-80年为客户服务 。自始至终在Vogtle 1和2上任工程师, 学习我多年来一直随身携带的多知识, 并同时获得核能价值评价,参与此项目或工作于PlantVootle的每一位专业人员都为他们在帮助建设格鲁吉亚清洁能源未来方面所发挥的作用感到自豪。”
连接电网是Vogtle单元3持续启动测试的一部分,操作符将继续提高反应堆发电电量,同时在不同电量水平上测试单元3继初始临界度3月6日达操作者安全启动核反应 产生核热产生蒸汽所有启动测试成功完成后,单元可用可靠发送后,单元将输入商业运算
第四单元热功能测试于上月启动,标志着新核单元在初始负载前进行最后一系列重大测试测试正在进行中,以验证反应堆组件和系统合并成功运行并证实反应堆准备加载燃料作为测试的一部分,现场团队将开始运行单元4工厂系统,反应堆中不含核燃料,并推进测试进程以达到正常操作压力和温度核操作员将使用单元四堆冷却泵生成热量提高工厂系统温度和压力到正常操作水平正常操作温度和压力水平实现并保持后,单元主涡轮机将使用工厂蒸汽提升到正常操作速度核运营商在这些系列测试中将能够按需在燃料载荷前完成验证程序
3单元的在职日期预测为2023年5月或6月Voltle单元4预测2023第四季度或2024第一季度开始服务
新建Vogtle单元是GeorgiaPower承诺向270万客户提供清洁、安全、可靠和廉价能源的重要组成部分。这两套新单元一旦运维,即产生零排放的清洁能源,预计将为50万多家和企业供电。南方核公司将代表共同所有者运营新单元:Georgia Power、Oglethope电源、MEAG电源和Dordal
